A closer look.
I'm making a row for a quilt this month that has a Farm theme. This is what I have so far:

I've been working some more on my row for my Spring Row Quilt. I think I have it just about where I want it. I think it just needs a bee or butterfly or some little bug. I'm just waiting to find the right ones!
I've sewed down the fence pieces with a small zig-zag stitch. The flowers are fused on but I'm not sure yet how I'll stitch them down. There are a some tiny pieces. Maybe a tiny zig-zag stitch, or maybe just straight stitch close to the edges. Any suggestions out there?
My row is for a row quilt exchange (not sure if that is the right term). Now 4 of my quilting friends will make rows for my quilt and I will make a row for 4 other quilts.

Isn't he cute! This is a McKenna Ryan pattern I've had for a while. Now I need to figure out some buddies for him, like a rooster, a hen or two and a few more chicks., enough to fill a 42" row. I'm not used to all this ad-lib quilting, or making it up as I go along. Guess it will get easier the more I do it!

When I do patterns like McKenna Ryan's, I use a straight stitch, using invisible thread and do it free motion. It's easier that way, than stopping and starting all the time to turn the quilt. That is how I would do all the flowers and leaves in your row.
ReplyDeleteturned out to be such an adorable row, I don't do much applique but I do a tiny blanket stitch on the few things I have done.
